..:just a random location:.. ..Somewhere in the city.. .City of Chicago, IL. says to ALL: The shop was set up and today was the first day being open, but now she needed food. She would do some grocery shopping first, then if she felt like cooking she would. But maybe she would eat out. She would have to find a part time employee.
Leaving her cat, Ozzy at the apartment she headed to the out. Now she was picking out fruits and veggies. Others like her tended to be vegans or vegitarians. At least many of the ones she met. Not her. She liked her meat and would make sure to get some good stuff.
She could have ordered it, but decided not to. She needed to get out.

..:Street:.. ..Chicago's Alleys and Streets.. .City of Chicago, IL. says to The Rose and Thorn | A: Where the hell is she at? The question swam through his mind for the past several hours as he walked the streets with Anuket waiting at the penthouse in case the wayward genie showed up. Where could she be? again the question at he pulled out his phone to mark the locations he'd checked. He knew she'd traveled the subway system but where she went and whether or not she found a way to return was unknown. Thank goodness he'd put a restriction on her using magics, but then again, if he'd allowed her the simple return spell she'd be with him now. then again, the last time she tried to return him to Anuket, she'd brought Anuket and Amir to the island. No, that wouldn't do. "Where the hell is she," he muttered darkly, still looking down at his phone.

..:Street:.. ..Chicago's Alleys and Streets.. .City of Chicago, IL. says to || Night Pilgrim || : She got her groceries and put them in her shopping cart. This came in handy, so very handy. Now she needed to get home. It wasn't a long walk, but long enough. It was a nice night so she wasn't worried. She had enough protections anyone thinking they could attack her would think twice about that.
Leaving the store she turned right to walk the few blocks to the shop where her apartment was above it. It was handing to live where she worked, but it wasn't ideal. It would mean she'd likely not get out much. But she'd have to make herself get out. Maybe that would be easier if she met people.
yeah.. cuz that was going to happen.
it did make her laugh as she made her way down the street.

..:Street:.. ..Chicago's Alleys and Streets.. .City of Chicago, IL. says to The Rose and Thorn | A: He paused by a light pole, leaned against it and dialed Anuket. "Any news?" her reply was tart and sassy, "I told you I would let you know if she came back, do you think I'd let you roam the streets all night?" That took him aback for a moment before he chuckled. "No, I know you wouldn't ...not like that. Let me know ...or I will you. " before folding the phone to tuck it in his pocket.
His body was enveloped in a deep sigh as he turned to look down the street, searching with both eyes and senses. "Damn it Zoe...where are you" he grumbled.

There was almost a skip in her step as her smile remained lighting up her eyes and face. She paused a moment as she came around the corner to see you under the street light. Her pause was long enough for her to realize you aren't human.
It didn't put her off, her protections protected her against attack from anyone. Taking a soft breath as she moves past with a soft smile, her accent strong as she speaks
"Evening."
then she kept on going. Though there was something about you that she wasn't sure about. Was she curious enough to stop and talk to you more than she had already, moving along as she pulled her shopping cart full of groceries

..:Street:.. ..Chicago's Alleys and Streets.. .City of Chicago, IL. says to The Rose and Thorn | A: "good evening," his voice low and melodic and not unexpected as she knew he wasn't entirely human. Giving her a brief nod before turning his attention back to the distant intersection. A second later, "excuse me. I'm looking for my lost ward, have you possibly seen a young Indian woman. She's wearing a blue choli and sari."
At least she had been wearing that when they went into the bank,. Seti only knows if she's wearing the same thing now. But, he had her lamp, certainly she didn't change. At that thought he brought his phone out again and began to check the news feeds for anything unusual happening. "no..nothing," he murmured quietly, just then noticing her groceries. "Do you require assistance?" before she'd gone too far.

Then your question to her bringing her out of her thoughts as she takes a breath. Oh shit she has to talk to you more? Smiling though as she looks to you. Listening the description then shaking her head as she goes through the customer she had today.
"No, I'm sorry I haven't seen her."
curious at your words, but she doesn't ask about it. She starts to move away when ask if she needs help. There is a soft blink, then a shrug.
"I suppose. yes Thank you. I was trying to figure out how I was going to get them up the stairs. I live a couple blocks away."
motioning in the direction she was walking.

"Of course,, if you guide the way," he approached with a walk that was more glide and gave the impression that moving was simply an act of breathing to him. He was there...he was here.
Yes, this is quite a bit," as he looked down at the cart with the bags of groceries. "Vegetables and...." then chuckled as he looked at her. "I do apologize, I am not judging or being nosy. If you will lead the way," he repeated before following her to her shoppe and the apartment above. "Convenient," with some admiration.

she grins as you look at her bags. Chuckling softly as you guess what's in the bags.
"Oh no worries. Veggies, Fruit, bread, meat, milk and some juice. Just something to start. my fridge is empty as of now."
she shrugs at the apology.
"No need to apologize."
nodding as you say it's convenient as she lets you into the shoppe, locking the door behind, then heading to the back and up the stairs.
"Yes it is."
Once in the studio she goes to the kitchenette where she sets the bags she carried up the stairs, and sets them on the small table to start putting them away.
"Thank you for your help."

"Dev..." a brow raising slightly for he found Aoife a much more suitable name, but she'd requested another. "I am called Marius Sant Germain," his smile lit up his eyes, "I go by Marius normally," with a light chuckle that echoed in the apothecary as they passed through. Once they reached the stairs, he easily lifted the cart and prepared to follow her up the stairs. "Is it locked up there, perhaps I ..." then halted himself. No, some people wouldn't be comfortable with a stranger preceding them into their living spaces, and ...the public shoppe was not the private living quarters. He needed an invitation. It given as he stepped up to the studio apartment, he places the cart next to the doorway. "your most welcome." It had been a diversion and given him something to think about other than his missing genie of the lamp.

she winks, grinning as you carry the cart up the stairs after she took a couple smaller bags out.
"Oh no, not locked. The other door is locked, but not that one."
shhhh don't tell anyone lest they thing breaking into the apartment will get them into the shoppe. It won't, wards protect it and anyone inside it..
She didn't mind if you were in her private living space. Hell you could stay here.
Damn.. she's gotta get those thoughts out of her head, she feels a slight flush to her cheeks as she tries to curb her thoughts. Least she can do is wait for you to leave.
"Might want to try one of the clubs to find your friend."

He chuckled as if he might have garnered a part of her thoughts though it was more the flush on her cheeks that spoke more than the words in your head "Ah, a club you say? Are there any near" he glanced back to the steps. "I'm only a recent arrival so i don't know of too much around her."

..Rose and Thorn Apothecary:.. ..Mystical Magics and Mundanes.. .Northside Chicago, IL. says to ALL: She was working late, as she usually did. Working in the back getting some of her orders completed. Technically she was closed, buty a sign on the door to buzz her. She kept the door locked even though the shop was warded to keep her and anyone inside safe, but it was a matter of principle. She was in Chicago after all.
Tonight, she was working on two orders for a salve to ease advanced arthritis. She'd done it before. It doesn't go away, but a little bit on the affected joints keep it from spreading. She took medicine in College in order to learn the human body and studdied the most common animals that people have from farm animals to domestic pets. And of course, there is her own cat, Ozzy. She had to be sure that she could help him as often as possible without incuring too man vet bills.
She finishes the salve and bottles it, twice before setting them aside.
Then she works on some other items ensuring to stock her shelves a little. Thankfully she's hired two people now and then she doesn't have to tend to the counter unless someone calls in unexpectedly or takes a vacation, that sort of thing. Now she can focus solely on creating.

..Rose and Thorn Apothecary:.. ..Mystical Magics and Mundanes.. .Northside Chicago, IL. says to A Rose and Thorn | A O: Dressed in his normal black with accents of red and white, tonight being white shirt and red waistcoat and tie, he was followed by Amir as they meandered the streets. This was the second night which he'd been without Zoe. Keeping a eye on the police blotter, he noted she wasn't found dead, but the city was so large it began to feel impossible. Damn his rules for her. Had he allowed her... No, no no. He couldn't think that. She'd wish them or herself someplace which would be less hospitable than Chicago.
That thought brought a snort of laughter from him. How many places were worse than Chicago...adding supernaturals atop it? Insanity.
He'd found himself passing down her street, inhaling as he breathed in the scents of witchery, and her own particular Irish aire. Motioning to Amir behind him, he diverted his steps until he found himself in front of the store, reading the closed sign.
"hmmph" he grunted softly waiting until Amir reached him to stand post by the door. Once Amir was in place, he pressed the buzzer, listening and waiting for her appearance. Odd, a passing thought crossed his mind, ...before he shrugged and passed it on and through.

..Rose and Thorn Apothecary:.. ..Mystical Magics and Mundanes.. .Northside Chicago, IL. says to || Night Pilgrim || : The a couple of dim lights flickered inside as she carried a number of jars and bottles from the back in a small crate. A smile lifts lips as she hears the buzzer, looking to the door she smiles wider to see who it is. Setting small crate down on the counter, she makes her way to the door.
Turning the bolt and sliding something, she then opens the door, a big smile upon her face.
"Hello Marius! It's a pleasure to see you agai. Please come in!"
she holds the door open for you and your guest to enter before she closes the door and locks it, soon after flipping the sign to appear closed even though lights are on inside.
"I'm just restocking a few items. What brings you in my direction?"
oh yes she's very happy you are here. So very happy. She's glad you decided to come by tonight. In part why the sign was on the door. Did she know you were coming? NO, and there were only 2 others who might come by this time of night.
She moves back to the small crate and behind the counter to set the items on the shelves.
"I trust you are well this night."

..Rose and Thorn Apothecary:.. ..Mystical Magics and Mundanes.. .Northside Chicago, IL. says to A Rose and Thorn | A O: He didn't need to say it, but as he entered Amir made no effort to follow. His large form remained planted as securly by the door as if he were glued to the spot. Not precisely glued, but certainly guarding the entrance as he'd guarded the entrance to all public buildings throughout his time with Marius.
"Good evening, Aoife," his normal melodic voice slightly edged with a worry she might have noticed at that last meeting. But it had grown. "It is a pleasure to see you as well," as he followed her in and towards the back. "I'm still looking for my missing Zoe." he cast a quick gaze over the interior of her shop and a deeper searching look as they reached the counter, noting the contents of the box and shelves behind them.
"Passable, and you? you are well?" he inquired in return.

..Rose and Thorn Apothecary:.. ..Mystical Magics and Mundanes.. .Northside Chicago, IL. says to || Night Pilgrim || : She did chuckle a little as Amir didn't follow, she's quick and realized he wasn't going to come in so just continued to lock the door as always.
She did notice the vein of worry in your voice and frowns a little at that.Though thoroughly pleased that you are happy to see her.
"Hmmm.. what kind of being is she?"
Yes, she knew about the supernatural world, being a witch an all. Maybe she can help in locating the missing woman.
Smiling though, nodding
"Well I'm sorry it's just passable. I hope things do get better. I'm doing good. I have all my shifts covered so no I can focus on making products and getting ingredients. And maybe get out a time or two."
she grins sheepishly at that.
The last of the bottles are put on the shelves, but she picked up two narrow decorative bags and wrote in decorative writing the name of the recipiant and the price. Then placed the final two bottles from the crate one into each bag before setting them so they were visible.
Then turning to you as she places the small crate under the counter.
"Is there anything I Can do help you find Zoe?"
she was curious as to what she was to you.. was she more than just a ward? It would be a shame if she was

" with only the briefest of hesitations. After all, she was a witch of sorts and was aware of what he was. "A...different type of being. Have you ever heard of Aladdin's lamp?"
As he spoke, he watched her bag and tag the items. "What is that?" with a nod towards the bagged bottles. "Making potions....and things....it's a hobby of mine," which he'd told her before but they'd never gone in depth on it. Yet.
He chuckled lightly at her offer to help, more in a dismayed type of laugh. It was not that he didn't appreciate it, but as they were a rare being, genie's were not found in the normal locator spell. Their ....composition, wasn't along the visible or invisible spectrum.

"Ah yes a Djinn. There may be a way to find her. fHmmmm... "
she's thinking even as you ask what's in the bag, smiling
"Yes. I have been doing that, according to my mother, since I could walk. At least that's when I started learning."
she pulls the bottle out to show him.
"It's for arthritis. I can keep it from spreading and take away the pain. But it works better when they do the right things and eat the right things to keep it from spreading."
which reminds her, she puts a small pamphlet inside each bag.
"Just one of the many things I make. You are welcome to look around the shoppe to see what's here. Some you will never find in any apothecary as I come from a long line of druids."
not bragging, and you can tell by her tone, just stating facts. They are recipes spread by word of mouth. You'll never find it written down.
She had come across a few Djionn in her life and for whatever reason she was told a way that they can be located. She has to do it though, she can't tell you how to do it because it won't work. It works with her druidic magic.

He found himself not wishing to challenge her ...at least for now. "And what things can they eat to alleviate arthritis pain and spreading?"
Yes, at that moment he was picking her brain for common, or simple knowledge. It was the most basic of things which tended to give greater explanation of just how talented the worker was.
"Indeed you do?" as he too up her offer and slowly moved around the shoppe to peruse the shelves of knowledge she had displayed.
A few of the items caught his attention, especially the rare items not normally found. She even had most of the ingredients to make gold. Now that was rare. Almost but not quite, he observed as he slowly made his way bakc to her.
"Very nicely stocked," he admitted admiringly.

..Rose and Thorn Apothecary:.. ..Mystical Magics and Mundanes.. .Northside Chicago, IL. says to || Night Pilgrim || : She has been challenged many times by many people. More than a few Doctors some of which now work with her to help their patients. Some come to her, some don't. Some come but decide not to buy. She would never force anyone or manipulate them.
A soft grin forms as she sets the bottle back into the bag for her staff to find when the customer comes in.
"Well Fish for starters. Sulfer filled foods like Cabbage, bokchoy, cauliflower and Broccli. As well as your greends, citris and their juices. Though freshly squeezed is better than grocery bought if you can do it. VArious nuts, Grapeseed or avacado oil are rich in Vitamin E. And many more. As well exercising in moderation. Swimming is best as it doesn't stress the joints as much. But if you combine Swimming with other exercises it should be good."
She's not the level of druid needed to cure such ailments. Her grandmother had reached the pinnacle, her mother too just before she left. She has years to go before she can provide that kind of care for people.
OH yes.. she had many ingredients not found in 99% of the stores around the world. She had her sources. They were as ancient as her own lineage. Families that worked together

Water too, but that was even as rare as the wine. He really wanted ....needed, more. With that thought he moderated the expression on his face and picked up the bottle from the bag. "I'm sure they will appreciate it," he said as he carefully placed the bottle back into the bag.
"I really like it here. your still room is in back, I presume?" he asked for he'd not peered back into her private areas. It just wasn't done. At least...not on the first visit.

"Yes it is. I do enjoy being back there. That's why I'm very glad to have two wonderful staff to work up front, then I don't have to and I Can focus."

smiling. You would have to pay the bill from her suppliers, but she would easily be the go the between. And it might just get her out a little more often than her next to nil. She's pathetic in that regard.. she uses a delivery service for food and other products

"I suppose I could do with some company. You can tell me more about yourself and your family." He spent most of his years on the continent, Asia, Eastern Europe, but Ireland was not a place he spent much time.
He always needed to learn.
"Of course, that is understandable, I could make it worth your time....their time," he added. Of course some things would need to be purchased face to face, it was necessary to test the quality of some...ingredients.
"I'll get a list," he added with a winning smile, then laughed at her grin. "you are so delightful, but I must tell you, I don't eat or drink...mostly eat, but even drinking is very.....rare." He met her gaze, "If your dinner consisted of you eating and me watching, I would enjoy that." He found himself thinking and knowing, he would enjoy it. She was delightful. It must be the red hair, he had never been around flame haired women.

..Rose and Thorn Apothecary:.. ..Mystical Magics and Mundanes.. .Northside Chicago, IL. says to || Night Pilgrim || : She smiles brightly, nodding softly
"That would be acceptable."
She did travel a little bit in her teens, but it was mainly to meet other druids in Europe, learning from them. Families as ancient as her own.
Stepping from behind the counter just as Ozzy hops on it to rub against her arm. She gives him a soft scritch behind the ears.
"I'll be back Ozzy."
turning to you as you speak of making it worth their while, she nods softly
"Once I have the list I will place an order. I do have to place one anyway."
she blushes lightly but smiles brightly at the compliment given
"Well thank you very much. You are a delight to be around as well. As for food, If you watching me is eat is what it takes. I'm ok with that."
Oh the red hair meant a lot of things. Some not so delightful. But not a place we need to go.. right? Ever?
Leaving the cat on the counter as he stretched out to wait for her return she moves to your side, then towards the door.
"Perhaps you can introduce me to the strong silent one outside."
she unlocks the door, holds it open for you. When you step out, she follows, locking it up, stuffing the keys in her pocket

..Rose and Thorn Apothecary:.. ..Mystical Magics and Mundanes.. .Northside Chicago, IL. says to A Rose and Thorn | A O: "Then we are agreed," as she pronounce it acceptable, his hand reaching out to grasp hers as if to formalize an agreement. At her blush, his smile grows, "certainly delightful," he mused as if reiterating it to himself.
he was very certain he would enjoy watching her eat. It was the little pleasures that made the greater ones all the more ...pleasurable.
As he stepped outside, he spoke to Amir. "Amir, I would like to introduce you to Aoife. Aoife, this is my man Amir. He's been with me ....a long time." a smile coated his words, for Amir had been with him for many hundreds of years. He'd been his manservant when he was alive and when death took him, the science of alchemy and knowledge of the pharaohs brought Amir back to ...a sort of life, what was popularly known as a ghoul, though he was far from that in Marius and Madalyne's estimation. Amir, unlike Marius, could eat and did eat. He found eating as pleasurable as Marius found the taking of blood and love.
Fortunately, or unfortunately, the knowledge which had brought Amir to life had long been lost to the pharaohs and Marius had only half the knowledge required.
Still he tried and one day believed he could make a companion for his Amir.

..Rose and Thorn Apothecary:.. ..Mystical Magics and Mundanes.. .Northside Chicago, IL. says to || Night Pilgrim || : She's in her late 20's but her studies have taken much of her time so hanging around men has never been a priority. You just might be the exception.
Looking to Amir as they are introduced, she smiles, offering a slight head bow
"It's a pleasure to meet you Amir. I'm glad you are here to keep us out of trouble."
offering a playful wink and grin at the man. A Ghoul huh.. well there are many creatures out there.
Perhaps with their combined research they could discover the seemingly undiscoverable.
She lets you lead the way, walking with you
"Did you check out the clubs yet?
she'll get to herself.. maybe. She really didnt like talking about herself, even if that was part of the agreement to keeping your company.

..Rose and Thorn Apothecary:.. ..Mystical Magics and Mundanes.. .Northside Chicago, IL. says to A Rose and Thorn | A O: Amir had smiled and bowed to her. "I am most pleased to meet you Madamoiselle Aoife." he said before looking curiously at Marius.
"She will be walking with us to search for Zoe." Amir nodded, his expression reflecting that same worried mein which held Marius. As they walked, Marius tucked her arm with his, as if he were escorting her into a ballroom.
"yes, actually, I spent most of last night in a couple of them. They have a tendency to be very loud, as I'm sure you're aware," he asked her and turned his head to look at her.
"You have a very glowing countenance," he observed , "quite lovely," for if compliments were thought they should be given in his opinion.

..Rose and Thorn Apothecary:.. ..Mystical Magics and Mundanes.. .Northside Chicago, IL. says to || Night Pilgrim || : She walks with you both, smiling and nodding. yes she will indeed be walking with. she notes the same worry in Amir that she found in you.
Grins as you tuck her arm in yours, she holds on lightly, walking with you, keeping pace with you.
She nods softly about the clubs
"Yes they do. Usually why I don't go inside often. I do like to be able to hear."
she laughs, but she'd follow you inside. Though not dressed for some of the fancier ones. She's rarely dressed for those ones.
Without realizing it as she holds your arm, she leans into you a little. Your compliment makes her blush a little again, smiling though. She doesn't hear them often. At least not in a crude way, but she does know how to take them.Even if she blushes a little. Not so much from the compliment, but that someone worth getting to know has noticed.
"Thank you. Not many can see or notice things like that."
It's her opinion that most people have become blind to true beauty. Not that she would describe herself as beautiful.

Though he and Amir could walk all night and feel no effects, she wasn't him nor Amir and he knew she'd not be able to continue for hours beyond hours.
"I covered this are last night," he indicated the section west of her shop. "Perhaps this direction," as he turned her East and began to stroll towards the riverwalk. "What is your parents names?" he asked casual questions about her family, about her life growing up as they traversed the streets .
Now and again Amir would divert off the street to cut across the alley to another parallel street, following it until they met up again in the next blocks.

"I will let you know."
looking in the direction you suggest to cover and she nods softly, her eyes looking around as she responds to your question.
"Amergin and Amaris Davoren. I was born about an hour from Glastonbury. We have a family farm. Our family has been on that piece of land for 5 generations. Prior to that they were in Ireland."
that's it in a nutshell. And it's why her mom gave her an irish name.. moving with you through the streets, eyes still glancing around.
"Where are you from? When are you from?"
she laughs softly

..Rose and Thorn Apothecary:.. ..Mystical Magics and Mundanes.. .Northside Chicago, IL. says to A Rose and Thorn | A O: He chuckled with her laughter, then shook his head as he gently chided her. "I'm not worth speaking about. Suffice to say, I have been around for many years, I have seen many things and I have lived in every continent on the planet."
Granted, the Americas were his most recent place. He'd never been here and really wasn't certain what he thought of it. Normally he had a fairly quick opinion of a place. Here? Not yet.
As for when? He really hated this
"I was born in the later part of the 29 Egyptian Dynasty...beginning of the 30th. Time was ...not as well kept then. " In fact the calendars and timekeeping were very well kept but after he was turned, what had been his previous life seemed to be of little importance and after all this time, he really had no clear memory of life as the boy and young man he'd once been.

..Rose and Thorn Apothecary:.. ..Mystical Magics and Mundanes.. .Northside Chicago, IL. says to || Night Pilgrim || : Now it was her turn to chide you, but she waited until you finished speaking of who and when.
Egypt. That would explain Amir very much so.
But she pauses, turning to face you, a hand rises to gently caress your face as she meets your eyes
"Marius, You are very much worth speaking about. Please, never let me hear you say that again. I find you worth hearing and speaking about. "
her voice was soft, but stern. She meant every words she said. She normally didn't contradict others, but she didn't spend her time with just anyone. As such she found you worth speaking about, and there would be little to deter from such a thing.
Then as if she didn't just give you shit for speaking lowly of yourself she speaks again, turning to walk with you
"I spent 5 weeks in Egypt, some little town west of where Alexandria is or was. I can never remember if the new city is in the same place as the old one was. OH what I wouldn't give to have seen the library of Alexandria!"
Her excitement is easy to gauge from her voice, though it rarely goes up in volume, just tone.

..Rose and Thorn Apothecary:.. ..Mystical Magics and Mundanes.. .Northside Chicago, IL. says to A Rose and Thorn | A O: Her light touch to his cheek stirred his heart and he found his hand cupping the back of her heat, feeling her hair soft and caressing across his fingers. "Beautiful one," He leaned slightly closer, almost enough to brush his lips against hers, yet he refrained from such a touch and lowered his hand from her hair.
"The library, yes, I spent many an hour there, it was quite wonderful." He smiled at the memory that remained, and kept silent about the scrolls he'd taken from the library. Scrolls he still had, protected and revered in his estate in Europe.
"I dined with many a pharaoh, ..." laughing at the idea, "the hollywood ideas of Cleopatra are far, far from correct. She was much more than beautiful. In fact, I find you more beautiful than she. But..she was engaging and had a mind that enthralled, words that enchanted. She kept a man's attention for hours and ..." he sighed in sweet memory, "one never regretted it, or even noticed the passage of time."

"Still"
said softly, answering the second one in a soft whisper.
When your lips touch hers she catches her breath. You are her first kiss. She let you lead the kiss, her own feeling of ackwardness pushed behind how good it felt. Pressing closer as you pull her to you.
As the kiss breaks she remembers to breath, her face nuzzling your neck as you press yours to her cheek. Her eyes close as her hand once on your face now rests on your chest. A Soft intake of breath. She too inhales your scent. Memorizing it, fully as her one arm slips around your back.
She doesn't want to tell you it's her first. But maybe you'll know.

..:Street:.. ..Chicago's Alleys and Streets.. .City of Chicago, IL. says to A Rose and Thorn | A O: Oh he knew. It was clear the moment their lips touched and he felt the tentative quiver of her lips. "Dear one," he soothed as his embrace drew her closer and his low sigh moved across her cheek.
It'd been quite some time since he'd felt the initial interest in someone, an interest that spoke of desire to feel her within his soul. He wanted to taste her again, easing back just enough to see her face and gently cup her cheeks with his hands. "Dear one," he repeated again as he once again touched his lips lightly to hers.
Once again it was a chaste kiss, one of feeling more than of fiery passion. But for him, it was more telling, more ....needed.
Necessary to life.

A soft breath hitching as your breath moves across her cheek, taking a breath of her own.
Her eyes meeting yours as they open, her hands resting on your chest, taking a soft breath and smiling as you call her Dear One, her only response is the kiss..soft gentle, pressing to yours. Chaste as it was it gave her a hunger for more.
When you finally pulled back she sunk her face into your chest, in haling softly, but just resting happily in your arms

..:Street:.. ..Chicago's Alleys and Streets.. .City of Chicago, IL. says to A Rose and Thorn | A O: He continued to cradle her, his arms loose but firm around her. His lips rested upon her hair, hhmmming quietly. "Thank you," he whispered softly, for she'd soothed a lonliness in his heart which had not been addressed in a long time. Not that Anuket did not fill his heart, for she certainly did. As did Amir and even Zoe, but this was different.
He knew it, believing she knew it as well. Even if right not she wasn't quite aware of it. He felt Amir looking at him, sighed softly but knew this interlude had to end, he had a mission and enjoying the passage of time with her was not in the cards tonight. At least, not the kind he wished

"You're welcome."
Yes.. she knew it. Though what she was aware of might feel differently at the moment. As chaste as the kiss was, she knew it wasn't the kiss you wanted to initially give her.
But she'll take it.
She also knew it had to end. You were on a mission. She draws back, hand rising to your cheek again and smiling
"Lets go find your genie."
pressing a soft kiss to your lips before pulling back and taking your arm again to walk with you. And she can't stop smiling.

..:Street:.. ..Chicago's Alleys and Streets.. .City of Chicago, IL. says to A Rose and Thorn | A O: Amir waited patiently, for could he do anything less? Marius pressed her close once more before releasing her and taking her arm much as he had minutes before.
He had relaxed and felt comfortable as they walked, meeting Amir's solemn gaze as they reached him. He knew well what Amir thought and lightly rested his hand on the man's arm briefly before Amir began to move down the street, his troubled gaze remaining in Marius' mind.

..:Street:.. ..Chicago's Alleys and Streets.. .City of Chicago, IL. says to || Night Pilgrim || : She moves with you. She does see Amir's solemn gaze and is curious what the man thinks, but she doesn't ask. Pretty sure if it were important, she would be told. But she is pretty sure it's about her.
Pushing that to the back of her mind she focuses. Her eyes light when she sees a stray cat.
"Just a sec"
She crouches down and smiles to the cat, using the druidic magic she knew to reach out to the mind of the animal. This caused the cat to come to her as she pets and strokes the cat she's asking about Zoe. But she pauses a moment, looking at you
"Can you give me a description of Zoe?"
continuing to stroke the cat's head and scritch behind the ears

..:Street:.. ..Chicago's Alleys and Streets.. .City of Chicago, IL. says to A Rose and Thorn | A O: Amir was concerned for his master, having been with him for longer than he could really remember. He had seen him fall in love and lived through the pain that came when the relationship was at it's in. It saddened him. It saddened him when Madalyne had become part of their lives and when she left Marius had spent years closeted in his lab creating and studying until he found another to love. it was a viscious cycle that brought only pain. At least only pain in Amir's mind.
Marius however was of another mind as hie heart felt light for the first time in a long time. He was at ease for the most part, but worry about Zoe continued to press upon him. "Zoe?" at your question, he frowned. "She has dark brown hair, brown eyes. Small of form but generous breasts." That he new from the clothing she normally wore. Clothing.
she dresses normally in ....in..." shrugging slightly before adding, "clothing that is appropriate for her. She doesn't wear western clothing." continuing to watch her as she patted the cat.

Oh there were times she thought she was in love, but in the end she wasn't. Though it didn't stop it from hurtin any less.
She nods to You about Zoe. As you tell her what the girl looks like, she communicates that to the cat.
After she finishes she stands and the cat darts off down the street, she tugs you along after the cat
"Come on, lets follow the cat."
she had remembered what you said she wore when she first met you and that's what she told the cat.
Before turning a corner the cat would pause to make sure we were following.

They would follow the cat to the neighorhood where the bank was and the subway which was now closed for the night. The subway which had taken Zoe on her trip out across the city and to the outskirts.
He rested his hand on the gate which was pulled across the subway entrance. "I guess we'll need to wait until tomorrow.." he stated matter of factly.

she crouches down to the cat again, telling her where can find a treat in the morning. Then asking her to spread the word, see if she can get anymore information.
Then the cat darts off again. You would see her stopping at one place in an alley and meowing and growling and making all sorts of noices before dashing off again as she stands with a chuckle
"I should have more information in the morning. Come by when you wake and hopefully I'll have her here or maybe know where to look next."
unless of course an animal or bird comes back with information

"At least we know she left from here," which was more than the knew before. "I beleive you," he said with a smile to her before he looked back the direction they came. "Amir, you may return home," he said to the man.
Amir, appearing startled for a moment then nodded, "Master..." before looking to Aoife. "Madam," before turing to stride away. Amir didn't really mind leaving, he was hungry.

"Ah I see. Well that is good to know."
She smiles to Amir, nodding.
"Have a good night Amir."
she wasn't sure if making a joke like.. she promises she'd take good care of him would offend the man or not so she kept that to herself, watching him go before turning to you.
Tilting her head a moment.
"Is there anyone you can call to see if they have found her?"
just a thought. She knew if she was looking for someone and had someone around she could trust she'd have them looking too.
Turning you back in the direction we came from, walking with her arm in yours again
